Animals Of The Western Plains

 This diorama is a dramatic one, featuring a stand off between a bison and wolves. The bison is very much a symbol of the west, and wolves will think twice about messing with a healthy adult.


Another diorama, but also fitting of the Canadian west. A family of pronghorns are gathered against a dramatic prairie background.


The skulls and antlers of various animals are mounted on the wall here.


They include a muskox.

  4. I live in a state that has many sizable bison herds, and pronghorn antelope. We don't need museum dioramas to see them.

  6. The antelope is a beautiful little creature. You usually don.t see them until they move.
